@honkman Just sent that to B, who believes in the potential of healthy eating for longevity. Me, not so much (I like to eat healthy-ish because it tastes good to me and I try to minimize my impact on the earth and animals). But he’s a doc so what do I know?
When I was an anorexic teenager I would eat the following for the day a few days a week- a hard boiled egg and a glass of skim milk with a bunch of powdered milk added- supermilk. Fast forward many years, when I was pregnant and no longer anorexic, the supermilk was something I had daily. My first DEXA scan pretty much said I was part Klingon.
